How to Determine Number of Floats for Floating Dock and Where to Space Them
Updated 04/09/2021 | Published 04/07/2021 >
Question:
I want to construct a 5foot x 50foot floating dock. How far apart should I plan to space them? Do you offer side post to keep the dock in one position?

Expert Reply:
That really depends on how much the floating dock is going to weigh. Basically you need to determine the weight of the dock and then divide that by 600 lbs as that's how much weight the # 36946117 supports. Then you'd want to evenly place the amount of needed floats on the underside of it.
